DESCRIPTION

A mirror is a flat piece of glass which reflects light, so that when you look at it you can see yourself reflected in it. Mirrors have been around since ancient times. The Egyptians, Greeks and Romans made small hand-held mirrors of polished metal. Glass mirrors were rare until the Venetians perfected the art of casting sheet glass and silvering it. Some mirrors are designed for aesthetic appeal as well as function. These include tinted and antique mirrors, and mirrors with surface decoration. In addition to having tinted glass, antique mirrors have a reflective surface that has been purposely distressed to give the piece an aged look. These mirrors have been specially handcrafted and seashells are fixed on its border for traditional design. These mirrors are available in round and heart shapes, fixed with various beautiful and colourful seashells with natural design. These mirrors when fixed on the wall have a unique and traditional look and take the interiors to another level. Apart from the fact that these mirrors look great aesthetically, these mirrors add elegance.

Mirrors are generally used for self-grooming purposes but these shell mirrors can be used for decoration for the very reason that these colourful shells look extravagantly beautiful. Mirrors, typically large and unframed, are frequently used in interior decoration to create an illusion of space and amplify the apparent size of a room. They come also framed in a variety of forms, such as the pier glass and the over mantel mirror. If a mirror is placed opposite or adjacent to a window, it reflects light back into the room to increase the ambient brightness. Placing a mirror behind a light fixture can double the amount of light thrown into the room

USES

A seashell or sea shell, also known simply as a shell, is a naturally occurring, hard, protective outer layer created by an animal that lives in the sea. If you've ever walked on a beach, you've seen seashells, and maybe even collected some to take home. Most shells that are found on beaches are usually made of calcium carbonate. Most seashells come from molluscs, a large group of marine animals including clams, mussels, and oysters, which exude shells as a protective covering.  These shells, because of their bright colours, rich variety of shapes and designs, and abundance along seashores, have long been used for ornaments, tools, and coins. Seashells are commonly found in beach drift, which are natural deposits found along strandlines on beaches by the waves and the tides.

Seashells have been used as a medium of exchange and currency in various places, including many Indian Ocean and Pacific Ocean islands, also in North America, Africa and the Caribbean. Seashells have often been used as tools, because of their strength and the variety of their shapes. Seashells have been used as musical instruments, wind instruments for many hundreds if not thousands of years. Whole seashells or parts of sea shells have been used as jewellery or in other forms of adornment since prehistoric times. Shells historically have been and still are made into, or incorporated into, necklaces, pendants, buttons, beads, earrings, brooches, rings, belt buckles and other uses. Small pieces of coloured and iridescent shell have been used to create mosaics and inlays, which have been used to decorate walls, furniture and boxes. Large numbers of whole seashells, arranged to form patterns, have been used to decorate mirror frames and furniture
